Hong Kong

Hong Kong is the embodiment of the balancing act between Chinese and European cultures and has long been one of the most exciting cities in the world. Hong Kong`s special status has allowed it to remain a modern economic, business and financial metropolis. To let prosperity in and bad luck out, the ancient Chinese art of feng shui is still applied to new constuction of skyscrapers. Very few old colonial buildings survive due to the building boom. Superb temple complexes abound, built in traditional style in tranquil settings, the mighty bronze Buddha above Lo Pin Monastery is the largest in the world.
